   How to generate a geometric sequence?

   • In order to generate a geometric sequence, we need to know the n^ {th} nth term. Using a a as the first term of the sequence, r r as the common ratio and n n to represent the position of the term, the n^ {th} nth term of a geometric sequence is written as ar^ {n-1}. arn−1.

   How do you find the 7th term for a geometric sequence?

   • Find the 7 th term for the geometric sequence in which a 2 = 24 and a 5 = 3 . Substitute 24 for a 2 and 3 for a 5 in the formula a n = a 1 ⋅ r n − 1 . a 2 = a 1 ⋅ r 2 − 1 → 24 = a 1 r a 5 = a 1 ⋅ r 5 − 1 → 3 = a 1 r 4 Solve the firstequation for a 1 : a 1 = 24 r Substitute this expression for a 1 in the second equation and solve for r .

   How do you write a geometric sequence?

   • This constant or fixed quotient is called the common ratio and is usually represented by the letter r. To generate a geometric sequence, we start by writing the first term. Then we multiply the first term by a fixed nonzero number to get the second term of the geometric sequence.

   How do you find the n-th term of a sequence?

   • To make things simple, we will take the initial term to be 1, and the ratio will be set to 2. In this case, the first term will be a1=1 by definition, the second term would be a2=a1×2=2, the third term would then be a3=a2×2=a1×22=4, etc. The n-th term of the progression would then be: where n is the position of the said term in the sequence.
